insert-token

Simple search and replace utility for replacing tokens in objects / strings / text etc

Usage:

const tokens = require('../lib/replacer');

const params = {
    name: 'Cayle',
    address: 'The Beach',
    height: 1.75,
    busy: true
};

tokens.replace('Hi {{name}}', params);  // 'Hi Cayle'

It processes arrays:

tokens.replace(['My name is {{name}}', 'Height is {{height}}'], params); 
//['My name is Cayle', 'Height is 1.75']

and objects. Both keys and values are parsed:

tokens.replace({ name: '{{name}}', '{{address}}': 1, '{{name}}': '{{height}}' }, params);
// { name: 'Cayle', 'The Beach': 1, 'Cayle': '1.75' })

Nested objects work too:

let result = tokens.replace({
    id: { name: '{{name}}',
          address: '{{address}}'
    },
    tokens: ['{{name}}', '{{busy}}', '{{height}}'],
    wins: 99
}, params);

=> {
    id: { name: 'Cayle',
        address: 'The Beach'
    },
    tokens: ['Cayle', 'true', '1.75'],
    wins: 99
});
